What to do now that ds4windows is dead again? (lemmy.ml)

By surprise and without any announcement (maybe I missed it?) Ryochan7 archived their ds4windows project with a final EOL release

Vigembus (the driver) is also discontinued due to a trademark issue by an unrelated company that has nothing to do with gaming

What will be the path forward to easily use non-xbox pads on windows?

But I play mostly from gog, and my Intel GPU doesn't play nice with the steam overlay (transparency becomes black and everything becomes 5 fps)

Also it means I have to waste 15 precious minutes troubleshooting the game. Pad isn't recognized, try via steam, add it manually, see if it works via xinput, and so on.
